The best way to get crispy chicken wings without frying or adding oil and calories is with the air fryer! Hands down my most used kitchen appliance (yes, even more than an oven). Try out any of these simple marinades and you’ll never want to order them from a restaurant for game day again.

minutesIngredients
- Wings
1.5 lb chicken wings
1-2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp salt, plus more to taste
1/4 tsp pepper, plus more to taste
- Honey Buffalo Wing Sauce
1/3 cup buffalo sauce (my favorite is the Primal Kitchen brand)
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- BBQ Wing Sauce
2 tbsp coconut sugar
2/3 cup no sugar added BBQ sauce (I love G Hughes brand)
- Garlic Parmesan
2 tbsp parmesan cheese
1 tbsp butter
fresh parsley, to garnish
Directions
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F by running the appliance empty at that temperature for ~5 minutes.
- In a medium sized bowl, add the chicken wings, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Place in an even layer in your air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F in the air fryer for 8 minutes. Flip the wings and continue cooking for an additional 8 minutes, or until cooked through. (Cook in batches if they are close to each other).
- For the sauces:
– To make honey buffalo sauce, in a small bowl whisk buffalo sauce, honey and Worcestershire sauce. Brush glaze on top of wings.
– To make BBQ sauce, in a small bowl whisk bbq sauce and coconut sugar. Brush glaze on top of wings.
– For garlic parmesan, brush melted butter over wings. Sprinkle with parmesan and parsley.

Made these wings last night and they were soooo delish. I used the honey buffalo sauce and it was so addicting. The Primal Kitchen sauce was so good. Thanks for the rec and def adding into the rotation!
